A month ago Apple announced a new documentary for Apple TV +. The basis of the film is about an artist from the world of music who struggled between recounting the sexual assaults and abuse to which she had been subjected in the music industry. In addition, the apple announced through a press release that Oprah Winfrey would be the executive producer of the documentary. However, a month later, Oprah announces that she is leaving the documentary due to artistic disagreements. The film will premiere at the Sundance Film Festival in late January as planned as announced by the filmmakers.
A film directed by Kirby Dick, Amy Ziering and produced by Oprah Winfrey
Ante todo, quiero que se sepa que creo y apoyo inequívocamente a las mujeres. Sus historias merecen ser contadas y escuchadas. En mi opinión, hay más trabajo por hacer en la película para iluminar todo el alcance de lo que soportaron las víctimas, y ha quedado claro que los cineastas y yo no estamos alineados en esa visión creativa.
This is the key to understanding Oprah's abandonment of the movie led by Dick and Ziering, directors of 'The Invisible War'. Oprah was introduced to the project at a late stage of development, which meant that many of the insights she could bring to bear were no longer viable or the directors did not want to make them viable. Apparently Winfrey claims that the vision of the sexually harassed artist he does not become the center of the film or does not get to expose himself as he would like, which could have caused confrontation with the directors. Finally, Oprah has decided stop being the executive producer of a movie with which he did not share certain aspects.
Una brillante ex ejecutiva de música que lidia con hacer pública su historia de asalto y abuso por parte de una figura notable en la industria de la música. La película es un examen profundo de la raza, el género, la clase y la interseccionalidad, y los ataques de víctimas afectan a sus víctimas y a la sociedad en general.
This is the synopsis of the film in question that will premiere at the end of January at the Sundance Film Festival, as confirmed by the directors, but without the support of Oprah, who thanked her for her statement unequivocally supporting women:
Si bien estamos decepcionados de que Oprah Winfrey ya no sea la productora ejecutiva del proyecto, nos complace que Winfrey haya dicho inequívocamente que cree y apoya a las sobrevivientes de la película. Las experiencias #MeToo de las mujeres negras merecen ser escuchadas, especialmente en contra de hombres poderosos, así que continuaremos con nuestros planes de llevar la película al Festival de Cine de Sundance. La película, que lleva más de dos años en proceso, será nuestra octava película que se estrenará en el festival. La película es un faro de esperanza para las voces que han sido suprimidas durante mucho tiempo, y una inspiración para cualquiera que quiera recuperar su poder
